Naples - Following a string of bank robberies that have hit several municipalities in the metropolitan area, police have further increased their vigilance.

The inter-force device is triggered

In light of the facts, the Naples Police Chief issued an order establishing extensive joint security operations in the affected and surrounding municipalities, with the aim of preventing further attacks and ensuring greater security across the region.

Over one hundred men on the field

Over 100 officers from various police forces are engaged in comprehensive surveillance of sensitive areas: checkpoints, night patrols, and checks on suspicious vehicles and individuals, as part of a reinforced enforcement strategy aimed at breaking the chain of attacks attributed to specialized gangs.

Intensive investigations by the Flying Squad

Meanwhile, the Naples Flying Squad is conducting a vigorous investigative effort to reconstruct the exact circumstances of the attacks, analyze video surveillance footage, and identify those responsible for the explosions.

Investigators are aiming to connect the two incidents to the latest robberies carried out by the Groundhog Gang, in an investigation that could soon lead to new developments.
